I have been following Geoff Chrysler's BN1 restoration online. I had notice=
d in one of his recent pictures that there are caged floating nuts where th=
e windshield forward foot attaches to the fender, and not the typical fende=
r clips. The cages are spot welded to the inner fender lip. When tearing do=
wn my BN2 I found these caged floating nuts pop riveted in, and I assumed t=
hey were wrong (partially correct). It seems to me now that the only thing =
incorrect is that they were pop riveted in, as I found the spot welded floa=
ting cages on my BN1 as well (and just like Geoff's spectacular car). So I =
plan to spot weld those back in.
Interesting though while looking at my front BN1 fenders I found the last/r=
ear fender attaching hole has a nut welded directly to the inner fender, ag=
ain rather than the typical fender clip. This one is not in a floating cage=
. Does this seem correct? I can't find any evidence that my BN2 had welded =
nuts on that last hole, but it's possible.
TY, Shawn
